Originally posted by DJ STEEVROCK Lucky you. Ive havent had a chance to see them in over a year. CG is one of my favorite if not my favorite dj/producers. I was just trying to point out how will that track was made. Also pointing out that although all this crappy prog. is going around CG still managed to keep hard and true to their roots. My badd if I came off a hostile but you'd be surpise on how many CG hater there are.

There are more DuMonde haters here than CG I think I think CG will never stop making harder trance. From all the German hardtranceacts they are, together with Kai Tracid (although I wouldn't specify him as 'hardtrance' only), the far most popular over here. They even moved closer to our border to perform here more often. But hardtrance isn't that popular here on TA, no, although there are a lot of people from the UK who appreciate the harder sounds too

yeh, sadly most hard trance artists make a shit sound, use the same cliche gash sounds, scot project style kick drums, bass and synths. SHOKK and flutlicht used to be different but theyre not around anymore. i mean, i like to play hard trance but there is only ever the odd decent tune among the millions (infact hardly that these days) that sounds different and good now that marco guardia has hung up his producing boots. i mean, most of the decent hard stuff is more tech trancey, stuff like innergy - dynomite or that mucho - dont snare at me.

however this year ingo has rescued the harder sound for me. he's ditched the shitty cliche hardhouse and started producing some good hard tech trance/hard trance. tunes like:

ingo vs. eseni - scare tactics
mda & spherical vs. greg brookman - levitation (ingo remix)
ingo vs. anne savage - never never land
ingo vs. danny gilligan - now is the time

To be honest I've never heared of Ingo...but I will sure check it out! I do agree on your statement too. A lot of hardtrance is sounding the same lately, becoming less original. Especially this year was pretty poor. Although SHOKK is still around (Woodshokk (Marcel Woods & Shokk) - Tulips & Chocolate), it's only DJ Natron who still performs under the Flutlicht-guise (Dance Valley Winter Edition) but there won't be any tracks, no. It's a shame, because Flutlicht rocked! But well, I just hang on to the gems that are still around and the memories some tracks gave me this years. But I must say that there are some hardtranceartists who have a sound not based on Scot Project, I think DuMonde has got a pretty unique sound IMO. If I hear a track of them it's always immidiately reconizable as a track of theirs.

There's not a single hard trance tune in that list. You could've at least taken the releasegroup names out.

SHOKK is still around but its only claudio atm. no marco gurdia who was also part of flutlicht, shame really. and dumonde brought out a few decent tunes under their no faces alias not so long ago.

i find no hacker a bit boring, its more like its tryign to be tech trance but just failing.

tanksi and savietto - outrageous was good, but more recently trance town - fingers (max savietto mix part one) im liking, its not a "big " tune or anything, just subtle hardness.
